Hinkle Reloads; Boone Takes an Early One

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Blair Hinkle was all in with a very short stack when we arrived at his table, and he was quickly eliminated as his {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts} failed to catch the {j-}{j-} of an opponent despite a flop with a {10-}{9-} giving him some more outs. He headed for the registration desk.

At another table, Jim Boone had just taken his seat when he got involved in a pot with Brian Zupancich. On a board of {10-Clubs}{j-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, Boone fired 3,000 when checked to, and Zupancich took awhile before folding what he said was two queens.

"First hand!" Boone exclaimed, tossing {k-Spades}{k-Hearts} into the middle and collecting the pot.
